The Rosalía Polemic
In 2018 Spanish singer Rosalía attained international popularity with her innovative flamenco-fusion album El mal querer. Within the flamenco world, the Rosalía vogue provoked vehement and ongoing polemics involving whether or not her music should be regarded as "flamenco," whether she had the social credentials to be accepted as a flamenco innovator, and whether it was proper for her to adopt the persona of a ghetto-girl Gypsy in her hit music v…

The Riddim Method
La scène et l'industrie du disque jamaïcaines, des années 1950 jusqu'à nos jours, ont une manière bien particulière d'aborder les notions de composition, d'œuvre originale et de propriété. Prolongeant une tradition où la performance live implique l'utilisation de disques (et influence en retour leur production), la relative autonomie, dans ce système, des riddims et des parties vocales [voicings] remet en cause les idées habituelles sur ce qui co…

Hathrasi Rasiya
Hathrasi rasiya is a traditional song genre of North India's Braj region, performed by semi-professional members of music clubs ( akhāṛās ) and informed by a complex set of prosodic schemes, with secondary melodic aspects. As these schemes involve, however tangentially, a kind of music theory, and the genre is patronized by local elites and enjoyed by connoisseurs, it constitutes a member of the "intermediate sphere" of regional genres that share…
The Intermediate Sphere in North Indian Music Culture
If in discourse about traditional music in North India, the notions of "folk" and "classical" continue to be widely used, in this essay I posit the existence of an "intermediate sphere," comprising a heterogeneous set of traditional music genres that, in different ways, shares features with both folk and classical realms. I suggest five categories in this socio-musical stratum and provide brief glimpses of some of their constituents and distingui…
The regional North Indian popular music industry in 2014
This article explores the current state of the regional vernacular popular music industry in North India, assessing the changes that have occurred since around 2000 with the advent of digital technologies, including DVD format, and especially the Internet, cellphones and 'pen-drives'. It provides a cursory overview of the regional music scene as a whole, and then focuses, as a case study, on a particular genre, namely the languriya songs of the B…

Popular music as popular expression in North India and the Bhojpuri region, from cassette culture to VCD culture
In the 1980s the Indian popular music scene was revolutionized by the advent of audio cassettes that dramatically decentralized production and precipitated the rise of syncretic folk-pop hybrids aimed at diverse regional audiences. In the years around 2000, the new medium of the VCD, or video compact disc, came to exert a similarly prodigious impact, enabling inexpensive popular music recordings marketed to diverse audiences to have visual as wel…
The Trajectories of Transplants
Indo-Caribbean music culture includes a stratum of traditional genres derived from North India's Bhojpuri region. This article discusses three such genres: Alhā-singing, an archaic form of birhā , and an antiphonal style of singing the Tulsidas Rāmcharitmānas . Despite the lack of supportive contact with the Bhojpuri region after 1917, these genres flourished until the 1960s, after which the decline of Bhojpuri as a spoken language in Trinidad an…

Composition, Authorship, and Ownership in Flamenco, Past and Present
In this article I explore how some processes of composition have operated in the modernization of flamenco, in the various forms in which it has flourished over the last century. Paralleling developments in certain other genres, in commercial pop flamenco collective, oral-tradition recycling of stock musical materials can be seen to give way to mass mediated, pre-composed songs, as new dimensions of finance and copyright precipitate polemics and …

Transnational Chowtal
In mid-February of 2007, I attended some lively sessions of chowtal (Hindi, cautāl), a boisterous Bhojpuri folk song genre, in a Hindu temple in a small town a few hours from Banaras (Varanasi), North India. The following weekend I was singing chowtal, in an identical style, with an Indo-Guyanese ensemble in Queens, New York City. In the subsequent season of the vernal Holi (Hindi, holī) festival, in March 2008, I found myself singing along with …

Puerto Rican Music and Cultural Identity
In this article I explore the process by which Puerto Ricans have appropriated and resignified Cuban musical forms as symbols of their own cultural identity. In some senses, the resignification of Cuban music by Puerto Ricans has involved distortions of historical fact, as I shall illustrate. More importantly, however, it has constituted a social process of appropriation by which Cuban musical origins, however once crucial in Puerto Rican culture…
The riddim method
The Jamaican system of recording and performance, from the 1950s to the present, constitutes a distinctive approach to notions of composition, originality and ownership. Emerging from a tradition of live performance practice mediated by (and informing) sound recordings, the relative autonomy of riddims and voicings in the Jamaican system challenges conventional ideas about the integrity of a song and the degree to which international copyright la…
Music as symbol, music as simulacrum
Postmodern aesthetics has come to be recognised as a salient feature of much popular culture, including music. Urban subcultures, and especially migrant subcultures, may have inherent inclinations toward postmodern aesthetics, while at the same time retaining ties to modern and even pre-modern cultural discourses. The syncretic popular musics created by such subcultures may reflect these multiple cultural orientations by combining postmodern and …
Popular Music in India
The dramatic development of popular music in India illustrates some of the complex and varied ways that South Asians have used art and entertainment as a means of adapting and relating to the social transitions accompanying modernisation.

Cassettes have served to decentralise and democratise both production and consumption, thereby counterbalanci…

Chutney and Indo-Trinidadian cultural identity
Since the early 1980s Indian diasporic communities have attained sufficient size, affluence, self-awareness and generational distance from South Asia to have created a set of popular music styles that are autonomous and distinctive rather than strictly derivative of Indian models. While the bhangra music of British Punjabis has attracted some scholarly and journalistic attention, chutney, a syncretic Indo-Caribbean popular music and dance idiom, …

The study of the movements and transformations of musical forms across time, space, and social contexts, although long a basic consideration of music history, has acquired fresh significance and analytical thrust in recent decades. Both the interest in such studies and their theoretical orientations have been enhanced by the emergence of globalization studies and the fresh appreciation of the ways that musical forms can be rearticulated and resig…
